There is no advantage to having a separate admin interface if it's on
the same segment with
your bridge interfaces.  I suggest you disable xl0 and assign its IP
to fxp0 or fxp1 instead.
Then you will be able to admin the machine from either side.  If you
wish to restrict access to
the admin IP,  use filter rules.

Your setup seems more complex than it needs to be.  I don't know if
simplifying it will fix
either of the problems you are having, but it's worth a try, and your
network will be easier
to understand which may lead to solving the problems another way.
